Thank you!

Thanks to everyone that played Harem, particularly those who left feedback either here or on the forums.  Feedback is both motivation to me and guidance on how to develop the game going on.  It's been critical for me to correct issues that I make and improve the game overall.  I've gotten quite a bit of it, but can always use more.  Please let me know your opinions of existing content, what you want to see in future content, or just any idea you have for characters, scenes or events.

I'm still on break from development, but I've just uploaded Harem 0.6a.3 to mediafire and re-enabled the haremrpg@gmail.com to autoreply with the link.  Again I'd ask that you try to use the links directly on the blog, but if none of them will work just send an e-mail for the link.  Please don't send any feedback or requests to the email as I'll be ignoring it as I get quite a few requests.  You can also send me a PM on any of the listed forums and I'll send you the link through there.

    1. That's a very open ended request and I'm not sure how to approach it. So I'll give some very general advice.

      1. Don't be afraid to ask for help, but realize that you have to be able to do everything to some degree. And don't expect much in terms of help until you get some real content released.
      2. Don't force in too much complexity early. Keep your beginning simple. You'll find that things get complicated on their own.
      3. All switches/variables, etc in RPG-VX can be set to 1000.
      4. .jpg's don't allow for transparency. Can be used for pictures but nothing else.
      5. Parallax mapping is hard. Stick with normal mapping until you get a good handle on it.
      6. While the plot and characters can be a bit less than logical in a adult game, they have to exist to some degree. But this early, write in pencil and not in pen, and don't describe something more than what's necessary.

    2. Thanks I will be sure to keep this in mind, as far as complexity goes I already have it being a bit complex as there are 3 separate story routes, and when I release a sample I probly wont have images cause I haven't decided if I wanna use 3D or try to make them myself by hand. At least I have my plot and characters laid out tho :D thanks allot for the advice.

  3. Ker: I love this game. The concept alone was interesting enough to make me play it, but the story (as you mentioned above) is what keeps me coming back for the updates and through different playthroughs (good and evil :D ). Thank you for making a game with both style, and substance. I look forward to seeing future projects from you. (With no rush of course :D )

  4. I enjoy all aspects of the game as they are. Though the health bar for the enemies was helpful i don't really see a need for them. I love the story and the construction of the chars. I can't wait to find out how to get the rest of the harem back and what new girls await. I'm curious to see if there will be some male hirelings or companions that will join as well to help manage some of the harem. Please continue the project in your own time for the time you spend to create it just helps it to become a better game that all can enjoy. I greatly appreciate your work and those that have helped you in any way with the project.

  5. Hello,
    I love the game!
    yet there is one thing in the beginning which may still need an extra part.

    before one gets cindy you can at the time have been sarah, one should first visit the city, unfortunately, it appears because it no longer on scene. not even when crossing the bridge.

    which is a shame since she is a very important character matrimonial already - otherwise is a little weird.

    Maybe you thinking there still was a great, perhaps as a secret part or so

    Would repays great!
    If you would like to have suggestions, I can also be happy to write a mail ;)

    Greetings mara
